- So . . . I'm "feeding myself" in the morning from God's Word and thought I'd post what I'm chewin' on and make my "food" available for others who might want to nibble a bit. Hope it's of some benefit to you . . .
The word of God is living and active . . . (Hebrews 4:12)

The Clothes Really Do Make the Man
The “price of admission” wasn’t so much their character as it was their clothing. Not about all the good they had done, but all about the garments they would don. Less about their resume, more about their robe. Chewing this … Continue reading

The Morning After the Night Before (2013 Remix)
What a night! No sooner had they begun to revel in the “thrill of victory” after having walked out of a plundered Egypt, then they found their backs to the sea, certain they were about to experience “the agony of … Continue reading
Dealing with Some Dissonance
Not sure I’m going to be able to adequately capture in a few words what I’m chewing on this morning. It’s one of the those “contrast” mornings where there’s conflicting, maybe even colliding observations from two of my readings. First, … Continue reading

Our Anointing
They were all dressed up. That had some place to go. But without an anointing, they couldn’t even get in the front door . . . literally. I’m wrapping up Exodus this morning. And the prevailing theme is the creation, … Continue reading
Your People! No, Your People.
“The LORD used to speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend” (Ex. 33:11). Scripture testifies that this was the unique relationship between the Creator and this particular image-bearer. Like neighbors might over a backyard … Continue reading

No Glory, No Beauty
“Clothes make the man.” The saying’s been around awhile. Given the state of our fashion industry — whether that’s a formal tux or a “pre-shredded” jeans — I’m thinking this age-old proverb still holds some sway. This past weekend went … Continue reading
Little By Little
It isn’t a term for the impatient. Not something you want to press upon the avidly ambitious. Somewhat out of sync with our instant gratification nature. But it’s a phrase that’s caught my attention and one that, as I chew … Continue reading
Where Grumbling Abounds . . .
Chewing on Exodus 16 this morning, and there’s repetition — boy, is there repetition. The newly delivered-from-Egypt, on-their-way-to-the-land-promised people of God, being fresh off of walking through a walled-up Red Sea, find what you’re gonna find in the wilderness, the … Continue reading
The Cry of Deliverance in Its Fullness
Flying down to the Golden State tomorrow morning to see kids and grandkids, so decided on doing a double reading in my reading plan this morning. It bore the unexpected fruit of picking up on one of those repetitive drumbeats … Continue reading

Just As the Lord Commanded
Think of those who walked out of Egypt behind Moses and, most often, you think of those who stumbled in the wilderness. Not much to show from that generation when they entered the promised land. In fact, not much of … Continue reading
